Aw, I feel bad for your dad! Why is he the only one without a middle name? (My name’s Paul, too.)I love your mom’s sibset! Hubert is one of my favorite male names.

Thank you! I'm kind of bias but I really like the name Paul! I'm not sure why My dad didn't get a middle name. My mom told me it was because the person they were going to honor died right beforehe was born and it was some kind of superstition or something like that. But if he had of had a middle name it was going to be Paul Moseby LN. Which I think he was might have been glad they didn't give him one!And that is cool that the name Hubert is your favorite male name. He was one of my favorite uncles!
Melva Alice and Geraldine Virginia are surprisingly pretty combos despite me not particularly loving any of the names.
Thank you!
I love the name Edward! All the names of the siblings from your dad’s side strike me as very classic, strong names. Randolph sticks out a little, to me it seems like a very American name, whereas the others less so.
I like Belle a lot, and from your mum’s siblings I love Alice. Melva intrigues me! It seems familiar but still refreshing. I like to hear Geraldine and Claudine, and Alrita interests me. It’s also interesting that one of the children was named after the mum rather than the dad, I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen that before but it’s also refreshing!
Thank you! Actually my Aunt Frances was named after my grandmother (Her mom) and her grandfather my great grandfather was named Francis. So it was an honoring name. I'm not sure why they didn't give the oldest son my grandfather's middle name. But I guess they had their reasons.
